In times long past, governors of castles would invite Florges to create flower gardens to embellish the castle domains.
Biology[]
(From Bulbapedia) Florges is a Pokémon whose green lower body resembles a mermaid's tail with two large leaves blooming on either side of the flukes. Its upper body is white and slender, with sylphlike arms that end in three dainty fingers; it has two black, diamond-like shapes on each side of its svelte torso. Florges's head is rounded with a pointed, upturned nose and long teardrop-shaped ears, while its dark-colored eyes are framed by lengthy green lashes. It no longer carries a single flower like its pre-evolution did, but instead a large bouquet of ornate flowers around its head. The color of its flowers depends on whether it held a Red, Yellow, Orange, Blue, or White Flower as a Flabébé. Florges claims well-tended flower gardens as its territory, and it basks in energy emitted from flowers to obtain power. Its life can span hundreds of years, and spends its entire life protecting its gardens. It is a female-only species.
(From Bulbapedia)Florges appears to be based on fairies and nymphs, in particular Anthousai due to its floral "hair". Its ornate, flowery "hair" may also be a reference to the 18th century pouf hairstyle, which was notable in that the style would commonly use decorative items within the hair itself to convey mood and uniqueness. Its body structure resembles that of the hyacinth flower, which has large sturdy leaves projecting from the base of the stalk. Its design may also draw inspiration from mermaids.
Name origin[]
(From Bulbapedia) Florges may be a combination of flora and gorgeous.
